WHOOPS... THIS SUNDAY, APRIL 12, 'THE AMAZING JAM' AT THE BLACK DOG IN STIRLING

Whoops....!

Change of plan!

Just (this morning) had a heads-up from the folks at the Black Dog. Turns out there is a large (and noisy) party booked for next Sunday (April 19th) the date we had set to gather again for The Amazing Jam here in Stirling. So, I consulted with some of you and made a quick ‘executive decision’ to bring the jam forward to tomorrow – Sunday, April 12th.

So....

This Sunday, April 12th from 2 pm until 5

At the Black Dog, 227 West Front St. in Stirling.

*Pssst! And don’t forget to check the Facebook page ‘BV Amazing Music’ for postings about more music and events in this area. There’s a lot of good stuff happening this next 2 weeks....

The ‘Amazing Jam’! Even more amazing music...

This Sunday afternoon at The Black Dog in Stirling. We’ll be

playing music there for about 3 hours. Welcomed by both staff and the patrons in the lounge and restaurant, our music is appreciated.

Once a month on Sunday afternoons. This Sunday afternoon (April 12th). Time is from 2 pm until 5.

The format is a ‘song circle’ with the lead changing from person to person among the group. Everyone has the option to offer a tune when their turn comes around, or pass to their neighbour if they’d rather. Depending on the music, the mood, choice of instruments, etc. some will choose to support whoever is leading a song, others may prefer to sit out and listen.

We invite you to come out and join us, making music with old friends; for sure, there’ll be some new faces too.

Remember....

“Bring your instruments, your voices and your music. It’s

a

ll unplugged

and it’s all good! Guitar, bass,

harmonica, banjo,

mandolin, ukulele,

fiddle, accordion,

flute, celtic harp – the list goes on.

“There may be only 4 or 5 o

f

us or maybe a whole room full of

musicians. A place for

‘first-timers’ and experienced players alike.

A

good bunch of pe

ople playin

g all kinds of music together.

People in

their teens all the way through proto-geezers. Maybe even an incipient-geriat or two....
